West Islip Public Library

Community Room B

Discuss this year’s Long Island Reads title, The Doorman by Chris Pavone, with librarian Michaela.

Discuss this year’s Long Island Reads title with librarian Michaela. Chicky Diaz is everyone’s favorite doorman at the Bohemia, New York City’s world famous home of celebrities, financiers, and the cultural elite. As Chicky changes into his uniform for his shift, he finds himself breaking a cardinal rule of the job: tonight, he’ll be carrying a gun, and pandemonium is taking over the city. Chicky knows there’s more going on in his patch of sidewalk in front of the Bohemia than anyone’s aware of. Tonight in the city, enemies will clash, loyalties will be tested, secrets will be revealed—and lives will be lost. Copies available at the Circulation Desk.
